Any old-school Dwiggie and/or Bits of Ivory readers?
Hi, all! I'm a culture writer and a long time Austenite, working on an article about the great fanfic schism that happened in the Jane Austen fandom way back in 1998, when the Derbyshire Writers Guild was created as a way of removing all the fic that was deemed "non-canonical" from the Republic of Pemberley.
I'm looking to speak to anyone else who was there during that period and remembers that era! If that's you, or you know someone who might want to chat, please shoot me a DM!
Thank you!
